MerMan's Comedy and Illusion Shows "We had about 60 of our closest friends in the apartments great room for a triple Birthday party. Ages 18-30 and MerMan killed it! We had so much fun and he even received a standing Ovation when he was done. He blew us all away with his magic and one of my friends said she laughed so hard she thought she might have peed a little bit. We had such a great time. Hiring MerMan was the best decision we could have made. DO yourself a favor and hIre him right now!!!!!!!!!!" Based in Norfolk, Virginia (151 miles from Raleigh) 25th March 2026 Jessie, Bryan and Virginia - Adult Birthday for three of us in Richmond

Kim Vaughn "Kim is laugh out loud funny! I had the best time! I hired her for my birthday party!! This funny lady started with Ms. Pat but I didnt have to tell my mom to close her ears! She was clean,funny and a good time was had by all! I would love to have her to another event! Hire her! So personable, I felt like I knew her!" Based in Washington D.C., District of Columbia (233 miles from Raleigh) Jackie Weeks - What a funny Lady!

Magic of Joseph Young "We do large events every year with 100-200 clients. Joseph was by far the best entertainment we have ever had. There is always a “risk” with hiring an entertainer you have never seen in person – and we have had other entertainers (singers, magicians) go poorly in the past. Save yourself the trouble of working with other people and hire Joseph, you will be EXTREMELY IMPRESSED! We look forward to having him back!" Based in Big Stone Gap, Virginia (241 miles from Raleigh) J Biance Financial
